Tonight Daniel received his Arrow of Light. When he first started cub scouts, he didn’t really care all that much about it. But over the past three years Daniel has really come to enjoy scouting. Our Pack Leader asked us to tell share one way we have seen Daniel grow through scouting and I have to say that he has tried things that he never would have tried on his own. He has always been interested in science in its various forms, but because of scouting I think his interests have diversified. He has become aware of a whole world full of interesting things. He still looks at them through the lens of a scientist, but three years ago he never would have been interested in archery or whittling. He is more likely to try new things than he was before and his social skills have definitely grown through interactions with his den leaders and fellow cub scouts. I’m very proud of him for his accomplishment and am anxiously awaiting the further expansion of his world through the many and varied activities of boy scouts. Daniel is excited by what is to come as well.
